This recording, made in the late '80s, was among those that opened up the monodic style -- the virtuoso recitative-like vocal, accompanied by a small continuo group, that helped pave the way for opera -- to an understanding beyond the world of specialists. Although other singers have come along and, to borrow an expression from the bluegrass world ...

One of the most painful results of the reorganization of the former Polygram under the Universal Music Group banner was that the musical world bade farewell to the L'Oiseau Lyre imprint. However, in time Decca came to realize that the lyrebird of old had a certain cachet with classical music buyers, and it reintroduced some titles beginning in ...

Philip Pickett and the New London Consort created a sensation in the early music world of the 1980s with this sublime recording of dances from Michael Praetorius' Terpsichore (1612); the album was so highly regarded, these exceptional performers eventually received praise in the online New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians for their ...

composed by Antonio Vivaldi

Extracting only the slow movements from Vivaldi's concertos is an odd idea, for they are carefully calibrated to their surroundings. Vivaldi's is an art of maximum contrasts within fairly fixed forms, and the slow movements contribute to that, with gently rhythmic tunes or even near-stasis juxtaposed with the programmatic effects or spectacular ...

composed by Anonymous, Anonymous, English, Anonymous, Scottish, Henry VIII, King of England, Jacques Barbireau, Robert Fayrfax, Scottish Traditional, Sheryngham, William Cornysh

These discs come from LPs recorded in the 1970s -- unfortunately the reader of the booklet does not learn exactly where or when from the booklet, which is also something of a graphic design catastrophe. The Hilliard Ensemble, formed in 1974, took a great leap forward in the investigation and performance of English Renaissance music. It took its ...
